and it will be VERY limited production...but it must be done. You can thank JustinB, James Crivellone and JParkr, this is all their fault.
Guys, here is the deal: the E28 is a nightmare to build a proper box for.
My idea of proper is first and foremost 100% of all the bass energy must be directly sealed into the cabin. Second, it must align with the cars resonance nodes to achieve incredibly deep, clean bass. Ask anyone who has ever heard one of the boxes we build...they work. You get better sounding, cleaner, deeper, clearer, more dynamic and more detailed bass using less power and cheaper woofers and amps. All the magic is in the design, that is why we have the reputation we have. If it doesn't work, we won't do it, period.
They also fit well. Since you have an E28, go look in your trunk. See that step in the floor, right at the front edge of the trunk? Yeah, the box will be fitted to just clear that step, as the only way to seal the bass into the cabin is to fit the face of the box and the woofer against that wall. As always, there will be a gasket involved, but it is under the upholstery so you should never see it.
You already know there are no holes in your trunk, so if you are into this, be prepared for cutting. You will have to precisely cut 2 port holes in the rear deck and a woofer hole in the rear wall, right in the fold down armrest.
The box itself is actually taller than the opening of your trunk, so be prepared for a major headache installing this thing too...but...
Thunder, expect thunder. MAJOR thunder. The single 12" in James Crivellones crazy-silly E28 easily does 140db at 25Hz, sounding graceful and clean the whole time. If we did not have 3 ginormous amps in the trunk, he would have quite a bit of space left too. The bass easily plays down to 18Hz or so, it is just incredible.
So, here is the deal: these boxes are going to be $325 plus shipping. Yes, I know, more than you wanna spend...well, sorry, get over it. This is the only run I ever plan on building. Hopefully. The last one I did was supposed to be the last too, but I keep getting requests...so here it is.
Let me make this part clear though: I am ONLY building 100% committed, pre-paid orders. I am not ready to start building yet, no commitments beyond what I have said here, so don't get your wallets out yet! Watch here and BF.c in the next couple of weeks we will be announcing the build with pictures and stuff, so check back on this thread later if getting killer bass in your E28 is a goal of yours.
Like I said, I don't ever want to do these again. Yes, they are beautiful, yes they sound killer, yes they fit perfectly...but they are a major pain in the ass to build.
Shoot me an email if you are for sure interested: sales AT germanaudiospecialties DOT com is the best address to get hold of me. If you have questions, please ask them in this thread, I will do my best to get answers for you.
thanks!
